Windows Fog on Start-UP; AC Does Work

It started last week. When we go to start the car up in any type of damp weather, the car fogs up and does not clear for awile. The AC is on and Auto is engaged.

I wind up turning it down to 60 degrees in cold weater just to clear it up.

Any ideas?

Thanks

This is usually caused by the moisture in the system.

I always override the AC and turn it off manually specifically for this reason and never have this problem.

Also what mode is your recycle air in?

I do not have it in “recirculate”. I wonder if the drainage tube is clogged ?

If so, where would the drainage tube be? Should I check it this weekend??

Thanks
